The JG Sig552 is a nice compact rifle for any purpose. It is small enough and light enough to be carried without fear of fatigue, yet strong enough to withstand the rigors of the environment. It is both compact and sturdy, while still being able to punch out 350 FPS right out of the box.

About the JG SIG552

As JG has been known for, this is yet another clone of the TM SIG
552 AEG. The good thing about ACM AEGs, JG especially, is their clones
turn out to be better than the original most of the times in terms of
function and affordability. Now let's see if the reputation of JG holds
true in their version of the SIG 552.

THE PACKAGE:

The JG SIG 552 is packaged in a simplistic cardboard box, with no
fancy graphics and with some prints about the guns basic info and specs.

As you open the box, you will see the weapon with it's stock
folded. Inside you will also find the usual ACM goodies: the battery (
SHUANG BA1100 NiMh 8.4v) and charger, Operating Manual, Cleaning/Push
Rod and a High Cap wind up magazine.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:

WEIGHT- this gun's wieght is a bit on the
lighter side, and that would be attributed to the amount of plastic
parts used in this particular model. This, however can be used as a
tactical advantage. A lighter gun (short at that) makes for a faster
movement and maneuverability.

SHAKE TEST- no wobbles, no creaks, even the folding stock stays in place. SOLID!

BALANCE - though the battery is placed inside the
front hand guard, there is no sensation of a dip due to unequal weight
distribution. I'd say it is well balanced.

THE "FRONT to END" RUNDOWN:

The business end of this AEG consists of the following:

Metal 3 prong flash hider with 14mm CCW thread

Metal Front sight with long range and short range options

Metal Outer barrel and Brass Inner barrel (tight bore).

ABS upper Hand Guard functions as battery compartment cover. 20mm rail can be found on the right side

ABS lower hand guard. Slides back to secure the upper hand guard.
20Mm rail at the bottom, perfect for an add-on tac-light or foregrip.
It is secured by a removable pin.

The BODY is made of ABS, inside is a version 2 gearbox (I have yet
to see this) the GRIP is also ABS, good angle and comfortable to hold,
BOLT CATCH HANDLE is metal, pulling it back will expose the Hop Up
(turn CW to hop-up, CCW to hop-down), trigger and trigger guard is
metal. The TRIGGER GUARD can be pushed side ways to the right (useful
if you are using really thick gloves this winter). The FIRE SELECTOR is
ambidextrous and is also met
